HS Code Classification for ULTRASONIC ELECTRONIC MOSQUITO REPELLENT
Based on the provided reference data and the product description "ULTRASONIC ELECTRONIC MOSQUITO REPELLENT", here's a breakdown of potential HS code classifications. It's important to note that the final determination depends on the specific features and intended use of the product.
1. 8543708000 – Electrical machines and apparatus, having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter; parts thereof: Other machines and apparatus: Other: Microwave amplifiers
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment.
- 43: Electrical machines and apparatus having individual functions.
- 70: Other machines and apparatus.
- 80: Microwave amplifiers.
- Rationale: If the mosquito repellent utilizes ultrasonic waves generated by electronic components, it could fall under this category as a specialized electronic apparatus. However, this is less likely unless the device's primary function is signal amplification.
- Tax Rate: Base Tariff: 0.0%, Additional Tariff: 25.0%, Post 2025.4.2 Additional Tariff: 30%, Total Tariff: 55.0%
2. 8515800040 – Electric (including electrically heated gas), laser or other light or photon beam, ultrasonic, electron beam, magnetic pulse or plasma arc soldering, brazing or welding machines and apparatus, whether or not capable of cutting; electric machines and apparatus for hot spraying of metals or cermets; parts thereof: Other machines and apparatus Ultrasonic welding machines
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment.
- 15: Electrical machines and apparatus for soldering, brazing, welding, etc.
- 80: Other machines and apparatus.
- 40: Ultrasonic welding machines.
- Rationale: If the device uses ultrasonic technology to disrupt mosquito behavior (similar to welding principles), it might be classified here. This is more likely if the device's operation is described as emitting focused ultrasonic waves.
- Tax Rate: Base Tariff: 0.0%, Additional Tariff: 25.0%, Post 2025.4.2 Additional Tariff: 30%, Total Tariff: 55.0%
3. 8543900000 – Electrical machines and apparatus, having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter; parts thereof: Other machines and apparatus: Other
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment.
- 43: Electrical machines and apparatus having individual functions.
- 90: Other machines and apparatus.
- Rationale: This is a broader category for electrical devices not specifically listed elsewhere. If the repellent doesn't fit neatly into other classifications, this is a likely option.
- Tax Rate: (Tax rate information not provided in the reference data. Requires further investigation.)
Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Functionality: The primary function of the device is crucial. Is it primarily an electronic signal generator, or is it designed specifically for pest control?
- Technology: How does the device generate ultrasonic waves? Is it a simple oscillator, or does it involve more complex circuitry?
- Material Composition: The materials used in the device's construction (plastics, metals, etc.) can influence classification.
- Intended Use: Is it for indoor or outdoor use? Is it portable or stationary?
- Certification: Depending on the country of import, you may need to provide certifications related to safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
Next Steps:
- Detailed Product Specification: Provide a complete technical specification of the "ULTRASONIC ELECTRONIC MOSQUITO REPELLENT."
- Consult with a Customs Broker: A customs broker can provide expert guidance on HS code classification and ensure compliance with import regulations.
- Official Ruling: If there is uncertainty, consider requesting an official binding ruling from the customs authority in the importing country.
